Murray, John Michael. "Situational Factors in Rape." Thesis, Griffith University, 2008. http://hdl.handle.net/10072/367084.

Abstract:

The purpose of this thesis was to investigate rape from the perspective of a situational model of crime. Rape has long been conceptualised almost exclusively from sociocultural and psychopathological perspectives. In the last few decades, situational models of crime have emphasised the role of non-dispositional factors in offending. These models have emphasised opportunity, the role of people’s routine activities in crime as well as conceptualising offenders as reasoning, that is, they will tend offend when expected gains outweigh perceived risks. Situational models of crime, notably situa

Abstract:

Many psychological studies have results that are difficult to explain in terms of the neo-Aristotelian model of virtue, vice and moral education. This thesis asks whether neo-Aristotelian moral psychology can account for empirical data on the effects that situational factors have on behaviour, specifically studies where situations affect attention and emotion. Some neo-Aristotelians argue that studies of behaviour are irrelevant to virtue theory; I disagree. John Doris’ situationist critique of virtue ethics has significant flaws, but its central point stands: neo-Aristotelian states of cha

Abstract:

The present study aimed at investigating the relationship between factors that are inherent in the perceiver, inherent in the situation<br>attitudes toward marital violence, attributions of blame in a violent incident, and judgments on what the victim should do after a violent incident. Attitudes are assessed via three beliefs that the violence can be justified, the husband is not responsible from the violence, and the blame of the violence can be attributed to the wife. Factors inherent in the perceiver (named individual factors), which are thought to be important, were defined as patriarchal

Abstract:

Pressure is known to decrease performance for well-practiced tasks. Research has found that pressure decreases performance for those with high self-consciousness when distracted, but the effects of pressure and distraction are not known for those with low self-consciousness. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to assess whether a distraction would improve the performance of those with low self-consciousness. A 2 (self-consciousness) x 2 (distraction) analysis of covariance (covariates emotional control, performance distance) factorial design was used to assess putting performance for 125

<p>Enterprise Modelling (EM) tools are an important part ofevery EM application project. Continuous evolution of modellingmethods therefore requires efficient EM tool support.

Abstract:

New product preannouncement refers to a firm’s communication of new product-related messages to the market before launch. There is empirical evidence to show that new product preannouncement has become an essential part of prelaunch activities. The purpose of this research is to bridge a gap in our understanding of the nature of new product preannouncing behaviour. Specifically, the research aims to answer two related research questions: (1) What situational factors influence the firm’s adoption of different new product preannouncing behaviours?

Abstract:

Leary (1992) suggests a self-presentation perspective could fruitfully be applied to sport. In support of this, early research has revealed that self-presentation concerns underpin a large percentage of competitive anxiety and stress in sport (James & Collins, 1997; Wilson & Eklund, 1998). However, little progress has been made towards the identification of athletes who are most at risk of experiencing self-presentation concerns. The main aim of this thesis was to examine self-presentation concerns in athlete populations. More specifically, the aims were firstly to develop a valid measure of s

Abstract:

Between 1996 and 2005, Uniform Crime Reports show an increase in girlsâ arrests for assaults. Previous research has suggested two possible reasons for this increase. Some suggest that girls are becoming more violent, while others argue that increases in girlsâ arrests for assaults may be an artifact of changes in parentsâ and police response to girlsâ conflicts in the home. To test these possibilities, this study uses data for 445 agencies (N=128,787) which continuously reported to the National Incident Based Reporting System (NIBRS) during the years 1996-2005 and information on state domestic

Abstract:

An individual’s bad news reporting behavior has been studied from a number of perspectives and has resulted in a variety of research streams including the MUM effect (or reluctance to transmit bad news), whistle-blowing, and organizational silence. While many scholars in different areas have studied reporting behavior, it has not been widely discussed in the information systems literature. This dissertation research addresses an individual’s bad news reporting behavior (and its antecedents) in the troubled IT project context. Many social phenomena are multi-causal (Hollander 1971).

Abstract:

Flight decks of the future are being enhanced through improved avionics that adapt to both aircraft and operator state. Eye tracking allows for non-invasive analysis of pilot eye movements, from which a set of metrics can be derived to effectively and reliably characterize workload, this research will generate quantitative algorithms to classify pilot state through eye tracking metrics. Through various metrics within the realm of eye tracking, flight deck operation research is used to determine metric correlations between a pilot's workload and eye tracking metric patterns. The basic metrics w

Abstract:

Multisensory integration is essential for our perception of the world. Multisensory illusion provide a unique opportunity to study the integration process. In particular, the double-flash paradigm – in which a single flash, paired with two auditory beeps causes perception of an illusory second flash – has often been used as a test bed for multisensory integration. The research reported here examines the effect of situational, stimulus driven and pre-stimulus brain state influence on the phenomenon to cast light on (i) whether we can have control over the integration (ii) what mechanisms accoun

Abstract:

I den här rapporten visar vi att ett undervisningsmaterial, som är framtaget utifrån faktorer som enligt tidigare forskning ökar det situationella intresset för något som ska läras, triggar ett situationellt intresse för materialet hos flera av eleverna i den gymnasieklass som deltog i undersökningen och håller det situationella intresset hos vissa av dessa elever. Intresse är en faktor som påverkar elevers framtida val av yrke och utbildning och således kan lärare som lyckas skapa intresse för fysik hos elever vara med och bidra till en mer jämlik skola. Situationellt intresse är den typ av i
